I have all the audio, subtitle, and video scripts for my encodes done.

I will run them through the encoder tomorrow because I will need my PC for gaming tonight with someone I barely get to talk to. I got more into gaming with friends during the period I wasn't encoding anything so I will keep that up for sure on occasion. I just bought a new studio microphone for my PC so I might just make some encoding tutorial videos on my Youtube Channel in the future so that my written material isn't the only thing available to you and you have something visual as well. It would be a screen recording of me encoding something and explaining everything verbally as well or better in detail than I typed it.

At this rate the encodes should be able to be done this weekend like I hoped. I will do the 1080p first and then the 720p later. Then all I have to worry about is where to upload the encodes to and about getting my old KAT only torrents reuploaded again on replacement torrent sites.

The possible torrent upload candidates I have at the moment are these.

ThePirateBay

Even though I am mad at this one still for past account issues, it's still a good site and about the most popular torrent site that's managed to stay up all this time even after takedowns. It is possibly the most used torrent site on the net now that KAT is gone so it seems a good choice without having KAT. Afterall, traffic count is important with torrents.

LimeTorrents

This one seemed simple and nicely done. It seems to have a decent torrent database and user count. I think this one will do well.

ExtraTorrent

I'm still having a lot of problems with this one like pop ups when clicking anywhere on the page or text entry spaces and I don't really like that, but it is one I used before. It still has my account and files, and it's there if I need it.

Demonoid

This one used to be my absolute favorite in my first year of encoding and it was about the only torrent site I used at first until it went down. It's back up now with some changes made to it, but it still has my old torrents on it and my old account for use. The only thing I don't like is the requirement of sticking that "Torrent downloaded from demonoid" text document in my torrent files. That was fine with me in the past, but now that I use multiple torrent sites, I don't know if I will like that. Anyways it was a good solid torrent site and it's there if I need it.

I'm looking into RARBG but I need an account to do that and it doesn't seem to be accepting people at the moment.

I will get around to finishing Spiderman. I actually have a few almost done projects still almost done from when I stopped encoding for a while last year taking up hard drive space I need. I moved this new upload to the top of the list because I want to watch it. I also wanted an anime to be my first return upload. I've seen Spiderman multiple times, and I've already encoded it before, so deciding I would be doing the better re-encode a little later didn't bother me too much.

Sinbad - Legend Of The Seven Seas in 720p is now available for download.

Enjoy!

Also, about the above torrent sites I mentioned a few posts ago. I have been having alot of problems with that Lime Torrents site. Hell my first torrent is still awaiting administrative review to be added after what? Almost a week now maybe. Every time I have tried to upload since my first upload all I get is an error that says "The torrent already exists, you can view the original torrent here" When I go to look, it doesn't even exist, and I know its not a duplicate because I just created it. This time it existed when I clicked view the original, but it had no uploader mentioned in it, it doesn't show in my profile uploads, and its not even the trackers I used in its creation. I cant even change my Avatar because it links to a missing page.

At this rate I am going to drop Lime Torrents really fast and give up on it as a possible upload site. It looked good at first due to their layout and look, but after trying to use it some, I consider that site shitty and or poorly run by its administrators if your wanting to be an uploader.

I still havent been able to get a RARBG account so, I guess that just leaves ThePirateBay and ExtraTorrent for now as my upload spots when I can't upload to Nyaa.

As for current plans this is what I'm working on. I left off with multiple things half finished or ripped and ready to encode before I stopped encoding for a while. I have been trying to get most of it finished up and off the hard drive for more space.

I have a couple movies ready to go and will get them out to everyone soon so thats a start.

The next few things to get worked on that I still have ready to encode or partially done are Spiderman 90's Animated Series, Magical Kanan, Phantom 2040, Tenchi Muyo OVA (1080p), and possibly Seraph Of The End (720p), I'm still contemplating if 720p is worth my time when 1080p came out so well.

As for the order I will get them done, don't ask because I haven't decided. It's what I'm in the mood for when I begin to work on something. None of them are particularly long and I still have a decent amount of free time so hopefully this will not take much time.

Okay, I have Magical Kanan finishing up and got more of Spiderman done today. I am actually very happy with the huge quality increase of Spiderman when compared to my old encodes of it. The experience I got working on more PAL sources since back then when Spiderman was my first ever, really paid off. I went over the scripts I made last year and made a few improvements. I suppose at this rate Spiderman will be coming out soon, with Magical Kanan coming up next.

I'm still working on Spiderman. I'm being picky as hell with these scripts and making sure each episode gets a better output. There's been a couple times I've rewritten a couple scripts slightly after checking the finished video.

This is apparently going to take me quite a while at this rate unless the later seasons become more equal in needs and not so different per episode. I only have the first 10 episodes 100% done and checked so far and that was about 24 hours. So maybe a week and all the scripts might be fully finished and ready for encoding.

I might be taking my time on this, but the results are worth it so far. Higher bitrate audio, much less blending/ghosting frames, no longer way over sharpened and noise reduced picture, so there's more retained details and the softness is slightly easier on the eyes. I think it looks plenty better in some ways.

If this ends up taking me too long, I will slip something shorter between it and next release and then finish it.

Got carried away with working on Spiderman episodes so I didn't get Magical Kanan up today or get my messages read. I may not have gotten Magical Kanan done, but I got 30 episodes of Spiderman done today.

I'll try to get Magical Kanan up tomorrow.

I got all the Spiderman scripts finished up, I will run it through the encoder within the next couple of days. The filters I used are VERY slow so it will take several days for the encoding software to finish every episode, but the quality results are worth it. I will give an estimated date of its finish, once I start running the through the encoder and can see the average time it will take to finish each episode.

In the meantime, while that is encoding in the encoder program, I will be re-uploading Sailor Moon S in the next couple of days, due to it being asked for. It looks about dead from the loss of KAT and my seeding computer I used to seed with, and was going to get a re-upload anyways, but I am prioritizing this re-upload due to no visible seeders and it being asked for.

I'm working on Initial D - Second Stage and OVA soon since I just got ahold of it. I'm trying to get Spiderman out of the way asap at the moment.

This started off as just a request from someone that I was fulfilling since they provided the disc, but I ended up hooked on it after watching it and want to see more of it, so I hope to do more episode in the future.

Do you think you could do a reupload of Zoids Chaotic Century as well? I can't find your rips anywhere

Yes, if you have been reading what I been saying, I mentioned that I am re-uploading everything I've ever uploaded with all new trackers because most of the torrent sites/trackers I used to use went down or don't work anymore. I can actually make it a priority reupload if you want it that badly and upload it again here soon like I was doing with Sailor Moon S for someone else. So just tell me if you still need it or if you got it from Koby.

I'm re-encoding the 2 Zoids series in much better quality. I kind of messed those up in my opinion, plus there are now Blu-Rays to encode. I have been trying to get ahold of the Blu-Rays but their pretty damn expensive and my request on ADC to get them has not been filled.

So until that's finished, I guess get them from where Koby mentioned if you must have it now or wait a short while and a re-upload will be available, because it will be a couple months before I re-encode it.

I've had quite the busy week and actually didn't get back to work until today. I wanted to yesterday but I couldn't.

So current plans are this. I got the rest of Initial D from a donor who purchased them for me and I worked on stage 2 to go with stage 3 because stage 2 is a very short season, and the donor really would like at least something to go with the Stage 3 movie they gave me. While working on it, I came across an issue I have not had before due to the source being quite messed up with interlace lines or aliasing. Funimation did pretty poorly on its release when it came to that matter.

I spent alot of time trying to get this fixed and in the process, I ended up learning how to use a filter better than I have been and I customized it as well to increase its quality output. This way retains more of the overall details and gives a slightly clearer picture as well. I usually only use it on PAL sources which I rarely encode, but it was required for this one to fix it. Just because it worked out better for this source does not mean it will for everything else, I need to test it out a bit more.

Since this filter is what I am also using on Spiderman, I am going to go through a couple Spiderman scripts and change it to match my customizations I did for the Initial D series to see if it improves the quality of those as well. Spiderman scripts are all done and ready to go through the encoder and I was going to run them all tonight through the encoder, but I want to check this out and see if I can improve those even more as well.

In the meantime, Initial D Second stage is currently running through the encoder, so unless this filter customization I am checking out does not improve Spidermans quality output any, Initial D Second stage might be the next encode I release aside from a couple re-uploads of much older torrents to update and re-seed them.
